Poor quality of work, poor communication skills

When I was on deployment i hired this man to take care or my out of state DUI paperwork. The communication was terrible. Took weeks to get back to me. No picked up his phone calls. Filled out my paperwork incorrectly. Gave me no guidance for future problems with the Secretary of State. Honestly thoug...ht I was his first client ever.

Integrity

I have worked with Michael Bonaguro for nearly 30 years. He has represented us in real estate closings and other matters. His advice is solid, and he is a man of very high integrity.

Unfortunate Experience

Hired this attorney. Requested a specific course of action be taken that is standard in the legal matter he was hired to handle. This attorney did not respect my requests as his client. After the matter was completed, other attorneys in the Chicago area were contacted for their expert opinions. All o...f the other attorneys stated that my requests were correct, reasonable and the best approach. This attorney cost me needless money and stress.

Results Oriented Attorney

Mr. Bonaguro was hired for three different matters to date. In all three instances, Mr. Bonaguro exercised expediency, straight forward communication and the utmost respect. Not only did he resolve these matters with the greatest of efficiency, he saw to it that I was in a stronger place as his clien...t. His skills in representing my interests along with an elegant bedside manner are second to none. I will continue to retain Michael Bonaguro for all of my personal and professional matters, as he has earned and nourished great trust in an industry that can often example itself otherwise. I have already referred Michael Bonaguro to others, as I feel supremely confident in his abilities.
